If you're looking to buy a P9, definitely do so at Best Buy over Google store:

1. BB GC has more flexibility vs. Google Store credit
2. BB will deduct taxes off your trade = more saving
3. Trade instore = no headache vs. send in trade to Google's 3rd party
4. Easy return/replacement should there be some defects. Google CS is horrid.

Check the trade in values against the Google Store. Best Buy has a better trade in for the 6a but Google a better one for the 8.

Though a $100 Best Buy gift card is better for most people than a $100 Google Store credit, so that's a factor too.

Thanks for the in-store trade in info. I was able to trade in iPhone 12 64GB for $799. The trade in value for the same phone on BestBuy online was $345.

Does anyone have experience trading in an iPhone that says "Your battery's health is significantly degraded."?

I just acquired a S23 ultra to trade in, but it seems like they changed the trade in value for the 9 pro XL Yesterday it was $1099, but now it is only $690

Has anyone tried trading in a s23 ultra recently.?

I bought it cheap enough that I can resell easily, but I really wanted a 9 pro xl Mad

They do not get that far into checking the phone. It will be fine.

I never ordered from them yet nothing shipped for 48 hrs. I'm guessing this is the $799 trade in effect, too many iPhone 12 orders? I see pending charge but no confirmation email 🤔

Edit: it finally shipped! Patience is a virtue!!

Mine shipped as well, even though I thought I was banned or something Smilie

What ARE you saying? If you got the deal before it expired, your trade in value is locked in at the promotional price. Your email confirmation, and your order details on the website will show your trade in phone value.

If you didn't get the deal before it expired, then no one in store can give it to you.

Let me tell you what he's saying. There are people claiming that they were able to get the deal after it had expired by just going to the store and doing the trade in there. He's saying that he went and he couldn't. I also went they had no idea what I was talking about.

Just checked in the store in the evening. It gives identical values to the online trade in process. Not sure how some people are getting $799. Maybe it's regional.

I don't know about today, but at least for me yesterday, you need to let them proceed with the trade in until almost the last step (before you sign away your phone). They'll need to select that you're trading it in for a Pixel and there eventually will be a page that shows the promotion and they'll need to open up a physical book to look for the code to enter in.

Here's a blurry photo of that page, I didn't want to be obvious that I'm taking a picture while the rep was doing his thing.
